#2024bestballdraft #bigboarddraft #underdog #nfl #2024fantasyfootball

It’s a hot start here for draft number 27 of my 2024 best ball drafts here on the splash playay channel and today we’re going to try to find any sliver of an edge that we can find is there any Edge left with the combine already happened for agen see coming up in a

Week welome we figure out what can we get an advantage on here let’s find it out I am already in a draft room here so we are going to get the pure uncut draft experience today I’ve been threatening it on stream I snuck into a draft room

Before anybody could get in here with me so no regulars we’ll see what the normies are doing in the draft here today on Splash Play cidd Lamb come on down at the two- hole I probably would have gotten him in one of our drafts as

Well uh but we are happy to get him in the number two pick nice bags here we go I’m pulling some tricks oh no sorry travioli look here’s what I’ll say I think what I’m going to try to do because look I have to I told you guys I warned you guys I

Was going to have to do this from time to time just to get different draft rooms where it’s not everybody who wants to do the same players as me um that’s just unfortunately the content game here baby I got to stay ahead of the curve

But also um I think what I’m gonna do is we’ll have competitive days here where I will tip off the chat before I come into a draft room and then you will get your chance to be in the Limelight so I will try to balance it out a little bit

Better you got to understand we got different Masters to serve here and and frankly too sometimes I get comments from people after the stream who are like oh you know what like that was a really helpful stream because it wasn’t the same thing things as you know every

Other time you’re doing a draft um where we have a lot of people trying to take the same players as me a lot of people trying to hit the same stacks and all that as me um so I think that’s sometimes a thing that uh can make the

Content a little bit more narrow so trying to broaden things here and maybe get myself some sick values along the way we out to Underdog promo code Splash on there double your deposit up to 100 bucks if you want to be a sign up also get a mystery pick them along with that

Which is one of those sweet little soft ones 0. Five Points in basketball game kind of stuff so check that out for yourself at Underdog and again uh happy to be with them for another year I feel like on social media now the new trend is already posting there I’m H my

Underdog extensions kicking in and I’m excited to be and I’m like fuck I didn’t know that we were doing like free agency style announcements because I just said it here on stream and granted you know with the same enthusiasm and all that but the underdog uh world is definitely

Uh thriving there and a lot of good names I saw our guy Ron Stewart over there has been on the stream of course Splash playay Alum Ron Stewart uh who has been I think a great content creator doing some mock drafts I saw or he he

Calls them the of course the better SEO friendly version the fantasy football mock drafts I of course just call him best ball drafts because I’m I’m lazy and I don’t want to chase SEO anymore quite as much so uh but I saw he resigned I think the the stock exchange

Guys did as well so feeling good started early this time there we go look I told you I told you I warned you and I told you uh unfortunately be my last live stream of the week uh umpiring at Ruff Rider Stadium that’s pretty cool I didn’t I know that we had umpires

Amongst us shout chunk here chunk of course very generous yesterday giftings some memberships which is a very much appreciated thing on the channel so if you got a membership yesterday uh good news you were going to be on the credits today of course of all the fine folks

Help me put on Splash playay saquan Barkley going at 15 uh reports coming out that the Giants actively seemingly do not want him back obviously there’s a price point where I’m sure they’d be willing to take him back as a a sign of Goodwill for moving forward but for sa

One does seem like we’ve talked about before he might want $10 million or more he and Josh sh the two guys that do seemingly have put out signals about that so I would say for saquan I’m just going to put the football on screen here

This is really show that I I know what I’m talking about here um for saquon I think that there is a a shot that he really ends up somewhere where he’s gonna have to take a a price discount the upside for him is like maybe that

Means luck boxing a late dolphin spot I I can’t imagine that but like you know he really with how it goes where I dig my heels and on sequin don’t think he’s good then he goes somewhere where it’s like you can’t fail you know then he would he would certainly be a better

Play but I think with where he is right now pick 15 we saw him go at pick 43 on a stream the other day so pick 15 not what I would try to do especially with that uncertainty nextra starting early you’re really tired of seeing the non-stop chat Snipes hey look all right

I appreciate somebody saying that out loud uh it’s unfortunately the nature of the game sometimes but we will adapt and you’ll still get your shots to compete with me here on stream but some days some days we got to go a little wacky go a little cray cray a lot more wide

Receivers by the way on the board here so we do have Devon Adams who’s coming up Debo falling a little bit really The Pick of the litter though I’m gonna go Devonte uh I think Russ being there still an option Fields reuniting with Luke getsy there still an

Option both guys I think would do a fine job feeding Adams and even if they take a a rookie you know to improve on Aiden oconnell I think it’s still ends up pretty well for them uh all right we could do just buy the book

Books buy ADP we can have some fun and reach for neighbors but I think I’m just going to go buy the books I think this is a room where I can absorb a good amount of value because this is not one of our usual rooms so I’m just going to

Take it by ADP cidd lamb Devonte Adams Debo Samuel so those are my start here from the two hole and we’ll see how deep we go at wide receiver um interesting piece of content on Spike week are Billy Jones a guy who I like a lot has also

Been very kind to Splash playay on social media in the past so shout out to him I think he’s writing a weekly article now or somewhat regular article for Spike week and he broke down like zero RB usage and how zero RB usage over the last you know three bbms has gone up

But you know still people going extreme zero RB it was on the lower end where we’re talking under 10% so I do think that you know there’s going to be more and more people going five rounds of wide receivers if you do go six and you cut off the position entirely you’re

Going to be getting more unique um but I think definitely you know four rounds a wide receiver that is still technically zero RB but is not going to be like it’s not going to be an unseen zero RB it’s going to be one that’s pretty chalky and

I thought that was what Billy did a good job in his article on spik week talking about I don’t have a link for it on hand but if you just go to spik week’s Twitter you should be able to find her or buy them for us um but yeah like

Basically he was talking about that and how you end up with chalky ZB builds we end up with the same portfolio too and it was an interesting way to think about it for sure um even though you know we shall see we shall see how anything goes

Obviously in year comes down to getting the right combo who’s going be the top scoring wide receiver from that two3 turn area I predict digs oron I feel like Debo is the highest weekly ceiling on that turn I mean Debo still has the out of a getting traded which is

Not you know I know it’s not the most likely outcome but it’s a possible one given that he can force his way to a bigger contract and you know that might be the move and we’ve seen already some social media signal from people in a circle kind of putting that out there

Whe that’s him or not obviously he doesn’t speak for them or they don’t speak for him rather um but I would say around this turn dvo I think still has upside I like tank again really do feel like Houston is is alive to take somebody on an outside reer role and

Just adding you know they were flirting with Mike Evans A Little Bit it seemed uh they could get a rookie in now a lot of guys who could make sense they were Brian Thomas would be great um you know uh Troy Franklin I think would be great really we talk about Houston now

Alongside Kansas City and buffalo being any spot that you get a a downfield Target you’re gonna be pretty excited without them um so I think tank I don’t mind Diggs is undervalue too apparently the talk is that g i mean we’ve said this for weeks but Gabe Davis not like

To be back so Diggs they feel like is the wide receiver one they feel like he just got unlucky down the home stretch that was a report that came out over the combine so I think you really can’t go wrong here is kind of the main thing um

Evans is going back to sampa Bay you know they’re gonna resign Baker you think uh obviously Baker there’s a shot that somebody could come out of left field maybe Minnesota uh who seems like they’re now trending towards losing Kurt Cousins because they won’t give him a guaranteed a second year on a contract

So somebody’s got to go to Minnesota it could be a rookie it could be Minnesota to me is pretty wide open actually so we’ll see what happens there but point being um I think it’s most likely Tampa Bay gets Baker back and that’s probably good news for Mike

Evans let’s see reading the chat here all right 34 neiz that this year is my 20th year umping at all levels wow it’s 14 that’s a lot of umping that’s a lot of umping for for anybody kudos to you all right so this draft room nothing too crazy so far Romo

Dun going at 38 I feel like it’s an interesting one um you could make the case here going off the title of the video if you want to say there’s an edge I do think OD dun at this point if we’re gonna say that neighbors is well wait

Where did Neighbors go in this room neighbors went no sorry neighbors went 31 I don’t know how I was missing that neighbors went 31 dunesday at 38 a little bit of a reach but I would say if there’s an edge it’s probably taking him there now because the draft Capital

Between Odun and neighbors is not going to be that big of a discrepancy and frankly at this point Harrison isn’t going to be that big of a discrepancy either obviously that doesn’t mean that they’re all going to be the same level of performer you do expect Harrison to

Be the top performer but with what Odun put up at the combine I think that you should feel pretty good about taking him I would take him ahead of Keenan Allen I don’t think Mecha should be 37 really again really I just a range at wide receiver I I really don’t mind

Anybody here but I I feel like to me Odun probably appropriately priced going ahead to Devonte Smith Mari Cooper maybe a little bit underpriced but he is getting and Cleveland Cleveland rumor would be going after Jerry Judy potentially which would obviously do interesting things for both Cleveland where Elijah Moore I

Think would become worthless it would hurt Amari Cooper for sure because Cooper is really benefiting by being you know the one reliable Target they can get out there not that Judy’s a reliable Target but he’s just somebody that’s going to take you know five to seven targets away um so that would definitely

Open things up for Mims as well uh which would be which is another quote that was in Matthew Barry’s combine piece if you missed that on NBC’s uh website all right so 030 we can keep pounding at wide receiver we could go for our first running back and it would not be a

Shameful thing at this point I’ve not gotten many shares of Jaden Reed and I’m comfortable getting one here Jaden wide receiver four and in this room too you know we’re not going to get quite as avalanched I guess though every room now with where wide receiver adps are in the big board on

Underdog you’re going to get avalanched a little bit but because this isn’t a normal Splash play because we started a little bit before the stream time starts uh we are going to get a little bit of a different texture I think than usual all right so 0040

Here Calvin Ridley probably going to get a good free agent outcome because there’s just nobody else left at the position um so I wouldn’t mind taking him actually do think he’s gonna come up see you know what let’s let’s make this room get uncomfortable at wide receiver

Taking Calvin Ridley tough part for me for a guy like Calvin Ridley is like I kind of think Brian Thomas might be a better play going late uh you know Ridley is going to get the best free agent deal at wide receiver just because there’s nobody else there

Brian Thomas goes two picks after anyway there we go but I do think Brian Thomas like yeah Brian Thomas should probably be around here it’s these rookies this year are crazy man like it’s really it’s insane how Brian Thomas is 52 and like it wasn’t a guy that I was insane about

Or anything I thought there was a good shot High EPA receiver I think 70 paa per Target and very good downfield as well uh but I thought you know like Neighbors being there that makes it easy for you to be successful but then him being that level of athlete and you know

Still commanding you know 24% Target rate uh while playing alongside a neighbors I’m starting to view it more of a positive lens but himit at 52 man it’s just 52 is steep like Brian Thomas but I don’t love him the tough part is when you watch him play he was just so

Open on every play and obviously I think again that’s a large reason why I believe Neighbors being so good underneath such a threat to catch a 5 yard pass a 10 yard pass and break that into 50 I think is really a big thing that helped out Brian Thomas but that

Said like he was still getting wide open and getting in completely open space so I I think that’s a really I think getting a little bit ahead of the rookies that have the combo of analytics and the combine stuff I feel more comfortable with

So uh to me that is Brian Thomas that is Odun um all right well let’s see let me go back to my wide receiver sheet and I have running back open um it’s Adonai Mitchell as well I think the size for him is a big difference to me it is lad makoni to

Some extent he was a 041 EPA guy two years ago I think the target earning is a concern for me still think there’s some fast Hunter Run thr to him but I would say lad would fit that criteria but I think just really trying to get up

Leg it leg it of course I’ve caped for for earlier than a lot of people out there um the AJ Brown comps again one of the biggest joys of my life is hearing people at the combine going he’s got lot like AJ Brown because I said that and I

Was like is this fucking insane that this guy seems like AJ Brown um but I’ve been happy at the leged stuff but I think some of these guys where it’s like they were they look good we’ve talked about them for about two months now on Splash play and then also they passed

The combine with flying colors I think those guys trying to be clear for takeoff is probably a little bit better leg get’s not going to get Brian Thomas draft Capital like I wouldn’t I wouldn’t take him that highly but leg get going in the 40s I’m pretty comfortable

With talk about run rate for Thomas versus lad Thomas was at 23% a lad for two years ago is at 26% because he did not qualify amongst the top 200 receivers in this past year uh spags you settle an argument for me would you rather have Cam Newton or

Sam Hartman start the year for your team day one uh this year oof I would take the shot on the upside of Sam Hartman and his movie star good looks I think both those things um cam just had nothing left we so we know he had nothing left um I guess it’s

Possible could scheme cam into a better situation if he had great coaching but I like you know it depends so that’d be the big thing is like is it a good coaching staff or is it the Patriots a couple years ago if it’s the Patriots a couple years ago I’d rather go Sam

Hartman um and if it’s you know if it’s GNA be like Mike McDaniels or I don’t know who’ be somebody that’s going to really scheme a good QB running offense something Shanahan tree you probably talk me into as well um then i”d be like yeah all right I’ll take

One more shot on Cam Newton saw in that fight video of him fighting off fucking seven dudes like he he still got some juice even though you know maybe not as much lately on the football field lad and Thomas are both the second option of their team so it makes sense

Both behind top 10 talents so that’s something sure sure sure I know we have to defend lad here on the show our guy Adam though was right about him so I can’t give him can’t be too mean about the lad biases given that they’ve paid dividends for somebody out there I’m

Sure all right so we’ve got CD lamb we’ve got Devonte Adams we’ve got Debo we’ve got Jaden Reed this is actually a very nice team at this point honestly and how do we make it nicer I think we take Brock Bowers uh this is a pretty good discount on

Jsn this is a pretty good discount on jsn is this guy gonna take Bowers from me do you think you know what if he does he’s probably doing me a favor anyway I would love to get another Sher Brock Bowers still very happy to take him again another rookie did not show any

Think of the combine because he didn’t compete um but I think in general you know him being a guy that had such production was such a highle prospect for so long um I feel pretty comfortable taking him here okay so bow is available Dak would also make sense with CD lamb you know

Dak with the contract stuffed a little bit weird right now it’s not going to affect him playing I would rather Shore myself up at tight end and take Rock Bowers here because I think I can get dax’s performance somewhere else at QB and you know yeah Dak goes to pick

After me to a guy who already has Josh Allen so we’re now seeing the flip side of the rooms of course where Splash play rooms where it’s a lot of the regulars in chat uh we do get people then you know making nice stacks and all that

Taking players that I like taking stacks and all that that are pretty much consensus agreed upon uh good Stacks here you get a guy who’s like yeah I’m gonna take Travis Kelce and George KD and Dak Prescott and Josh Allen and correlation no I’m just taking fun guys

I guess he has James Cook with Josh Allen but um actually this is isn’t this the guy from uh peach show look at this so never mind he’s just drafting I guess unless it’s a different guy I don’t really I don’t know I don’t know that dude

So boo to the Dak feed Ferguson gets just as much production if not more than Bowers maybe just depends where Bowers goes I think if Bowers does go I’ve said Carolina enough times because seeing a vacated target tree is always gonna be really appealing for me for a guy coming

In um I think that one oh what was one that I saw so Seattle so all their guys are freed and they cut will dley Seattle might be interesting because I think again Tyler loet maybe not 100% to come back a new coaching regime probably doesn’t make that of a higher

Probability I would say it’s still a pure 50-50 on that so if they have metf jsn and Brock Bowers and then they also have a more downfield attack like Ryan grub had at Washington I think that it would be a very good thing for everybody there um even though the team’s going to

Be a little more defensively minded still definitely going to run the ball aggressive ly you know I think going to bring some Raven style principles but you’re going to run to set up the pass and you are going to take downfield shots I just don’t know why you would

Bring in what Washington’s offense was last year if you’re not going to take downfield shots so to me Brock Bowers could probably do well there too but again it’s just like you’re competing with DK metf who I think would also really benefit in that situation uh Troy

Franklin even in this room uh goes 85 so Troy Franklin I’m surprised I feel like I’ve seen enough people be really down on him that I can’t believe I’m not getting him in this room but we’re fine with that we’re we’re an extreme zero RB team so we’re basically done at wide

Receiver for a little bit here four more to join this flash play friends and family draft NFL early oh the drafter NFL okay well there you go uh if you want to go sign up those guys or check those guys out go ahead use that prom good Splash drafters I think

It’s it is still valid so perom good Splash on there double your deposit up to 100 bucks if you want to go draft with Tyler in the gang get a parallel draft going we’re running multiple tables here all at the same time Jobe Myers Jobe Myers at 87 is a

Wild one of me I would take Mitchell I would do Mitchell a lot also interesting that Franklin went ahead of Mitchell in this room so we are really seeing some different stuff so no again no disrespect to the regulars who I know love being in the draft rooms I think

It’s fun to like you know be a part of the thing um and it is fun of the splash part of Splash play so I don’t want to like take that away fully but we are seeing some different stuff here which I think is interesting to see Mitchell valued after jacobe Meyers is

Mind-blowing to me after dos is mind-blowing to me um one of the reports in Matthew Barry’s column by the way about his combine stuff which was a really good read by the way a great read every year for him since he’s been going to combine um Let me let me make the

Pick here and I’ll I’ll try to remember what I was talking about um this guy have he’s got mcaffrey I’m gonna take Brock pie to lock this down the the issue with Brock P for me is taking him out this range I still feel like Brock p is not a cozy 2qb

Build for me I’d rather get three if I can get that with P um whereas like for Herbert I don’t know if that’s that’s just kind of like a mental block I feel like because Herbert’s not better than Brock pie and probably wasn’t better per

Game in any sort of metric yet I’m like ah Herbert he could be part of a tqb build so I think perie should be more comfortable with him as part of a 2qb build all right on the clock year what should I do Nick chub is not still not a good

Value at this range I think Eckler is can’t imagine Eckler is going to hold a team up for money so Eckler will be our first running back off the board team so far an extreme zerb build we went extreme bro we’re drinking Mountain Dew here we’re drinking surge is what

We’re doing Brock pie Austin Eckler cidd lamb Devonte Adams Debo Samuel Jaden Reed Vin Ridley jsn and Brock Bowers so we’re not stacked up anywhere yet besides the pry Debo portion of things but I I like the see man I think we are taking advantage of a room that is

Softer than the ones we’ve been in and Trey Benson goes a 100 in this room so things are moving around is we are getting wild this extreme multiple X’s Eckler season okay good I’m GL I didn’t read the chat before I clicked Eckler so I’m glad you guys were on board with

It do you ever watch the show in Animal Planet call the most extreme I have not or is it about extreme animals is Spuds McKenzie the former beer icon of my very very young childhood is he still is he extreme enough for you I think so Maris

Brown had a debate with a guy on social media who I actively don’t like if any of you guys follow Roto surgeon um just somebody who I just don’t enjoy following on Twitter but you know you follow people in the industry because they say interesting things or whatever

And just every engagement I’ve ever had with him is like so unpleasant and um again I don’t know if anybody follows him because he does have a lot of followers get a lot of engagements maybe you do um but just like he was like Maris Brown because I uh one of the guys

Who does I think draft analysis stuff had posted like a comment for me from Splash saying like that Xavier Worthy’s basically another marus Brown and I don’t want to do that again and I still fundamentally do agree with that if Maris Brown lands in Buffalo Kansas City

Houston yeah then right Maris Brown I’m back in but if he goes to somewhere like New England I don’t want to do the Maris Brown shit again uh but the guy was like replying the r surgeon guy was replying to it and like oh well Mark like what

Having Maris Brown to be the greatest thing ever and and it’s like okay dude he hasn’t had a 100 yard game since week three of 2022 he’s a minus EPA receiver per Target guys in that Arizona offense last year had Spike weeks so yeah Maris Brown is not dead because he’s fast or

Whatever and he can land somewhere good but like we got to stop caping for guys just because like you like them at one point in life um so I don’t know just Maris Brown now I will forever be tying him to this dude who I just do not enjoy

On social media just like people who like don’t you and it’s hard because you know I get you want to debate and on Twitter people have time I like I don’t enjoy that so like I’ll give a couple replies or whenever if I see something interesting and want to engage with it

But I don’t want to do like four five back and forth where you’re just like ah here’s the thing I believe fucking this gorilla Style No thank you Hollywood looked like he lost a step twoo I mean he was a minus EPA receiver to be that

Fast in an offense where like Josh jobs was cooking for a while like I know we don’t want to hear that but like he created production for guys U like fucking rondale Moore had a spike week Greg dorch had a spike week McBride had multiple Spike weeks with a QB situation

There so why did Hollywood Brown I mean he played enough games too before he got hurt we keep we keep going back to the well because it’s like oh yeah he was we liked him a couple years ago in the Ravens and he’s been a wide receiver one

For two years and didn’t do anything like I think that’s a really bad sign unless he goes somewhere and becomes a wide receiver too if he’s GNA go to Kansas City and there’s going to be Rashid rice and Travis Kelce working in the middle of the field underneath

Routes which was a report coming out of the combine as well that Rashid rice they want to be doing mirror routes to Travis k to really work the middle of the field so don’t expect that a DOT for Rashid rice to go up but yeah like if if

Hollywood Brown’s going to be there getting downfield targets off that being Justin Watson and mvs he’s gonna Crush but like if he goes again if he goes to New England if he goes to Vegas like what is it gonna do for you I don’t like a lot uh perie Eckler six wide receivers

Tight end and yet here we are getting our beautiful boys I I could play Ridley coming back to Jacksonville but I’m not gonna I would rather have Jane Daniels and Trevor Lawrence Jen Daniels can make all the mistakes of the combine he wants he’s still the best analytics QB that

I’ve seen now in three years of doing this really aggressively of looking at the advanced analytics before the draft um so for me Jaden Daniels I happy to get him in a normal room here what a treat man what a treat just be getting guys uh Troy Franklin the only one that

Eluded me Drake May goes as well before Trevor Lawrence which yikes tough scene tough scene for Taw uh Tai Chandler positive Juju for him Chupa hubard some nice quotes about from Dave Canalis about him at the combine I’m actually pretty okay working these guys into the portfolio more I think they should be

Keyser RB Parts neither correlates with anything though I do think Bowers going to Carolina can make sense so I’m gonna take chuba here team so far Brock pie Jaden Daniels this could be a 2qb build I think if I hold steady Austin Eckler chuba hubard at running back wide receiver cidi lamb

Devonte Adams Debo Samuel Jaden Reed Calvin Ridley jsn and a TI and Brock Bowers we got it Tyler’s also removed Hollywood from his player pool okay look I’m happy to take Hollywood Brown at a discount like I’ve seen him go in the 120s it’s fine I

Still think again if he goes to KC if he’s to Gabe Davis replacement Buffalo I don’t know how they’d make that work contract wise but theoretically then yeah like he’s probably gonna pay off like he’ll probably go up 40 picks in 0p but for right now you know taking him at

100 it’s still a little bit Rich taking him where he was going last year was very rich and that was like probably one of the worst picks at ADP overall in draft I’m going to cough please excuse me while I mute the microphone uh one day I’ll be not sick

What that is I’m not even gonna say it we we all know what we’re doing thank you the coughing motion on mute was so hot yeah look man I I got to keep pressing my throat my nose it’s all been tough but we got giraffes thank you I did it for Tyler

Yeah if you want if you want the full experience here we’ll go full screen here just put your butt up to the screen then there you go only on Splash play Gabe Davis pick 137 again not going back to Buffalo Jerry Judy though live to get traded somewhere that could be an

Upgrade uh Cleveland was the rumor that I saw today in the legit football newsletter which is a good one to get for yourself if you just want Daily News updates I think they do a very good job combing through what relevant and mostly fantasy Focus even though it is not a

Fantasy newsletter um but you know for Jerry Judy he could definitely be somewhere better um and I think again if he goes somewhere else Mims is probably really undervalued right now and it does feel like Judy’s on the market so Jerry Judy to me I think a not bad pick at

135 Brandon Cooks is the one I feel like in this Ranger I have not been able to click at all thank you only spags will virtually finger your butt live for no Super Chat need that’s what we’re here for the end of the day it’s a service based industry

Um again we’re just crushing it running back Roshan comes back to me happy to do that Roshan assumption would be that he takes over the lead back rooll khil Herbert’s still in the mix um guess they could cut him but they don’t need to oh there we go thanks for the butt

Tickle you get something nice off I appreciate that thank you for the Super Chat Tyler $3 and I’ll I’ll put it wherever you want what is Nate C Smith gonna do oh he’s going for Marshon Lloyd he’s going up the board all right go get your guys

Obviously I like Marshon Lloyd I think I’ve got a perfectly fine amount of Marshon Lloyd so I’m okay with that uh Michael Wilson being his guy I don’t know if I love that for him kendre Miller on the board we could also just lock down Chicago backfield um which is

An interesting play with Caleb Williams likely to take you know he’s going to take less touchdowns away than Justin fields’s still going to take some Caleb Williams runs more than people know but I’m gonna go kendre Miller here I think kendre Miller undervalued Alvin Kamar likely cut candidate and even if he’s

Not I just don’t know how you could run that back and give them 20 touches a game after what they saw last year so my team so far Brock pie and Jane Daniels at QB a running back Austin ekler Chupa hubber Roshan Johnson kendre Miller a wide receiver CD lamb Devonte Adams Debo

Samuel Jaden Reed Calvin Ridley and jsn and it’s tight end Brock Bowers is it me or is this the best team that I’ve drafted on stream in like the last two weeks because I I think I may be somewhat of a victim of my my own non-success but of you guys hanging out

Here with me because the draft rooms have not been this fortuitous I think the last few weeks on stream here so I’m just gonna say that out loud because you got to be thinking it looking at the scam there’s a very good team and this is with people again like

Uh assuming this is the guy on the club with Pete like this’s still a room with sharp drafters and all that so like it’s not like we’re got a bunch of badges bunch of guys were putting up real drafts so it’s literally just that you

Guys now have been so trained by both my streams and of course other people in the industry because I there’s a lot of overlap with with Pete streams with um who else is a good drafter I maybe I’m sure Ron’s Ron Stewart streams um see a

Lot of guys out there who are good drafters and herig ETR guys shouldn’t leave them out Spike week guys um so you know like I think that just getting fucking random people on Underdog probably a lot better I’ve never felt it this pronouncedly so I’m sorry to you

Guys for putting up this sick team right in your face so first of all yeah this team fucks aggressively thank you yeah the team does the finger thing for you uh mayor was supposed to print money per carine last year but he was the most uh dapped Rook to me oh disappointing okay

Um we disa was really I was not ready for that um I for mayor yeah he was disappointing the tough part was that he had a toe injury um in the back half of the season when which is when he could have spiked a little bit more and also

Frankly that team was trying to find its footing with feeding Devonte Adams effectively so it was kind of a tough situation I think that for him down the back half still think he showed enough still think a new chance here with um you know new coaching or you know new

Offensive coaching um and again you know for whatever Luke getsy flaws where he used cole kment really well to the best of his capabilities and made him a positive EPA receiver a positive touchdown receiver with big spike weeks so I think for mayor I’m willing to buy

It again and you know he is one of those guys he was a little bit slow at the combine and you know maybe that’s like the difference really but um but he was such a big Target under Notre Dame I don’t think he give up on that he’s priced

Appropriately that ass sure rookie tight ends said to start slow in general yeah I mean tight ends is a tough position that’s why Noah Fant a guy is a free agent this year this around the time that like free agent tight ends really start to break out it’s after that first

Rookie contract and then they go out in the market and they’re in their mid2 and they’re able to block better as well as you understand how you do the blocking and the route running equally and for a guy like no fan who’s a freak athlete

Too I like I like him late I he’s one of my favorite late tight ends too tight end is a pool here and again you see too because we are not in a splash play room Darren Waller who I got picked 200 the other day going to pick 154 not

Accounting here Chino season is not for the retirement risk for Waller those rumors are coming on hot and heavy lately even though I think the more likely outcome as he comes back but at pick 154 probably would not to absorb that risk uh Jaylen pulk Marvin Mims I think

These guys very happy to take him this range Malachi Corley going the wrong way not competing at the combine was a bad thing for him uh I agree man it’s one of my least favorites uh but you know like so and I it takes a lot for me to like

Say that to somebody directly I’m just like I just can’t I can’t keep playing the game of like I follow you and you like you think we’re peers I just I just don’t see it um audri estimate on the board but do think we can get away with

Letting him slide here I’m actually G to take Zach Moss who in free agency has a possible like a lot of possible good outcomes he’s not going to price himself out of a deal analytically was very solid last year I will pull up Zach Moss numbers because I hate saying things

Like that without backing Zach Moss solid actually you know he wasn’t that great but was still like basically average negative .05 EPA per Rush negative .05 EPA per reception uh avoid a tack rate of 16% he’s okay but I do think that one thing I saw on

Twitter maybe he is an eagles back that they get for cheap um I’m okay taking that and even though the bloom is off the rose a little bit getting audri ese now in a non-splash playay friends and family room at pick 170 I got to do it

2661 here Brock pie and Jaden Daniels at QB Austin Eckler chuba hubard Roshan Johnson kendre Miller Zach moss and audri ese at running back wide receiver cidd lamb Devonte Adams Debo Samuel Jaden Reed Calvin Ridley and jsn and it’s tight end Brock Bow’s holding it down Zach mosan Do’s the line of running

Backs 2024 yeah you know what honestly I really thought he was gonna be better in EPA based on some of those games he had um you know there were the getting stuffed the goal line kind of time periods which does really hurt running backs because if you’re at like the five

Yard line and you don’t score a touchdown basically it really fucks up your EPA because like you’re supposed to score a touchdown there really um so for Zach Moss that could be something I’m sure we all remember the games where he was chalk and he had five goal line

Touches just didn’t get a single one in so that could be it but you know for the eye tested that was a little bit better Ricky peol have to keep pointing him out him going at 175 very solid pick at that range Elite athlete um guy who I thought

Was really being carried by Anthony richon the year before last especially when us watch game and highlight taped and then this year he did it again and frankly it’s impressive to see that because QB drop off was really big uh so for peera another guy here who like

Malachai Corley should not be going 12 picks at her peol TZ Walker make the case TZ Walker had a good RS day as well and more of an air yards Merchant because Drake May forc the ball aggressively downfield at UNC uh but peol I think to me he and TZ Walker

Should both be up here I think they these guys Jaylen pul should be there I would put Corley back down here Tyler Conlin probably getting a slight artificial bump from the release of CJ OAA already wasn’t in the mix in the back half last year so that shouldn’t affect anything you’re doing

Uh but I do think that’s probably a slight bump there uh which it’s probably Conlin again at tight end I guess so I don’t hate The Pick of this range catch Ricky psaw made last year is absolutely insane he’s look he does a lot of big plays man he’s had a lot of

Extended plays he’s also had some plays too where it’s like the one the famous one was like Anthony Richardson you guys have probably seen it in the the rookie highlights from when he was coming into the league but like basically Richardson when he was at Florida um does this play

Where like boot legs around gets guy off his back they don’t realize that the ball like isn’t out yet so then he piercea is wide open in the end zone and just catches the ball like this and like nobody’s within 10 yards of him um so he

Had a lot of easy plays to because of AR but again like the guy they had this year Mertz or whatever the fuck his name is um not good so for AR to have done that and then piol to keep doing it uh yeah very good Merz uh mer sakly play all right

Look I I I could look up the numbers um but I’m probably not going to but I I don’t think he was certainly not an AR Trey Palmer pick 183 I think a good value here the Trey Palmer now losing one out of Mike Evans uh leaving in fre

Agency that would have really bumped Trey Palmer up so Trey Palmer appropriately priced but probably shouldn’t be up much higher he should probably be ahead of Z Jones I would think um but I would put him behind Curtis Samuel and Elijah Moore and peol solides solidur so frustrating you dub

ER big p energy big p indeed did you he talk about Corley on move the six I did not what did what was the download on that I missed that entirely because I didn’t like I didn’t think he was hurt I don’t know why he didn’t compete I don’t

Like there wasn’t any reporting on him um that I saw so I’m happy to get any info but I also didn’t look that deeply I just was like why out of all the guys who needed to be there especially with all these guys putting on freak days if

You’re like a small guy who played at a small school Malai cor come from Western Kentucky uh you need to be at the com doing this shit if you can be if he’s hurt or something then obviously that’s a different thing I still feeling audri I’m not not

Feeling him uh the rest of the r scores are good enough especially his short explosiveness drills so I’m okay with him in general Gino would have been a third QB I’d consider taking but we don’t need him so it’s fine uh 2661 we do need that second tight end I kind of

So like Hunter Henry I’d be happy to take here possible good free agent outcome for him or just Improvement in New England but Davis Allen to me just undervalued higgy not likely to be back with the Rams uh because of the injury if he is back he’s going to be on the

Pup list and probably gonna fall behind Davis Allen who should prove well as a high EPA guy for what he did last year so I’m happy to get Davis Allen as my tight end to uh would have considered taking Henry on the way back but that option has now

Sailed do need a seventh running back Philly’s gonna add somebody in fre agency but I still think gainwell we could maybe get somebody in fre agency added and they get Rashad pennied would I guess be the Hope on this bet so gainwell rb7 I think I needed a seventh

Running back now more than a seventh wide receiver or a third tight end so let me give the team a read here for the podcast listeners of course podcast feed getting updated every day now so if you want the audio versions of these you can

Get them too on the go Brock pie and Jane Daniels at QB Austin Eckler chuba hubard Roshan Johnson Kendry Miller Zach Moss audri estimate Kenneth gainwell at running back a wide receiver CD lamb Devonte Adams Deo Samuel Jaden Reed Calvin Ridley and jsn I think we loaded

Up a wide receiver so I’m actually pretty happy with this room even though I imagine I’ll add at least one more guy coming up Brock Bowers Davis Allen at tight end I’m actually happy with that room Davis Allen I think criminally undervalued because he just didn’t have

A big sample size and people were not following the Rams closely enough down the home stretch so I’m cool with this Damen Pierce Resurgence he would need uh Noah fan goes to 2011 no Fant would have been a nice pick as well uh Damen Pierce Resurgence so he needs Deon

Singletary to leave and he needs to really improve his stance with the coaching staff um I don’t think that’s gonna happen so I’m not the most wanting to bet on him but if you saw the backfield come back and it does kind of seem with that deal for Dalton Schulz

Seems like the Texans just want to run it back and not try to like get outside of pocket try to change the thing to help them get you to the second round last year uh so I think for me um I would want to not go with Damen Pierce

And maybe try to play a rookie going there instead and and the coaching staff that being their pick because Pierce wasn’t their guy and I think we saw like Pierce wasn’t their guy uh but that was one of the ones that I harped you know

Beat the drum on a lot last year I was team Devon single ter because like one guy got brought into free agency is like a vet back who can do a little bit of everything and the other guy had some real bad real big flaws even though he

Has some Kenneth Walker style you know home run hitting ability um they did not fall in love with Damen Pierce and they actively fell out of love with him so it’s hard to like hard to turn that back with this exact same coaching situation Pierce doesn’t really fit the

Scheme they ran either sure but you know he’s fast and he’s got good lateral movement and he should be able to block he should be able to run routes he just doesn’t do it so that is what it is notice I was in your draft and got a sub

Here good drafting hey thank you Michael I appreciate that so there we go it’s working out in the inverse where today we didn’t get all the regulars in the draft room instead we’re getting people in the draft who are coming to Splash play so the system works but glad to

Have you on board Michael appreciate that very much and there you go it’s been a positive draft experience for me today uh the one thing that I was hoping for is that in this room with less spash play regulars that Brendan rice might have come back to me a little bit later

Brendan rice of course had a good combine but not blow away numbers like everybody else did so I think he’s going under the radar as a guy who’s quietly a very good performer in EPA last year and and is more than athletic enough to do

It at the next level and I don’t think being Jerry Rice’s kid and Jerry Rice doing inter interv about you and coaching you I don’t think that’s a bad thing fundamentally not a reason to like bump them up 50 spots in 80P but like if I’m

An NFL coach and I know that like I’m getting Jerry Rice’s kid and he’s a better athlete than Jerry Rice I’m gonna give it a shot I think that that’s me though that’s me fresh fish on the line I don’t think it’s fresh fish I think I think we’re having nice sharp

Guys in here just different pockets of drafters out there and that’s the goal of course if you’re new out here like some of our folks coming in do subscribe hit that like button leave a comment of course Splash play Little Engine That Could uh doing this by

Myself every day Monday to Friday at 11: am. and I enjoy the process that I hope you guys do too so uh join us on that Journey here and of course NBA today also a big NBA DFS slate I’ll be playing it already put it in my 150 Max entry so

Actually look at the data a little bit more after the show uh but NBA tonight going to be a thing that you can use the pro stochastic promo code Splash on there to say 15% off let me make a pick and then I’ll I’ll whore for a moment

More Damen Pierce still on the board not a bad pick but I think we’re done at Perry could make a leap up this year um he was a guy who added one point basically every time he was targeted in terms of the EPA metrics the expected

Points added stuff so at Perry as my wide receiver seven we’re doing it and again New Orleans Michael Thomas not likely to be back so there was room for somebody to be there and I think AC Perry could benefit a little bit from just not having that it’s a lot of

Routes man it’s going to be gone um all right I think we need the third tight end here I have been in the bag for doul in the past Theo Johnson Elite athlete Ben Cate though good enough athlete and still a guy that I prefer to Deo to Theo

Johnson Ben cin come on down as my third tight end we got a lot of guys we like today the team so far with one pick still left I feel like the team is loaded for how i’ view things but Brock perie Jaden Daniels at QB Austin Eckler chuba hubard Roshan Johnson kendre

Miller Zach Moss audri ese who we are not out on and Kenneth gainwell at running back the wide receiver CD lamb Devonte Adams dvo Samuel Jaden Reed Calvin Ridley jsn and at Perry an interesting mix of wide receiver at Perry at Perry’s gonna learn a lot from these guys that’s fundamentally what I

Believe a tight end Brock Bowers Davis Allen and Ben cinate an unproven tight end room but I like it a lot man this team this is one of my favorites this is bad news for all the people the collaborative drafts you guys want to do

Here on stream because this is one of my FES this is great this is great I don’t think Thomas retires wants to prove he still let Alpha receiver yeah look uh definitely possibly he’s got a little more juice than it might seem I don’t think he was a bad performer last

Year 0.16 EPA per Target 21% Target per out run that’s enough juice that’s enough juice to get a job it’s just you know he’s a little bit of Mal content so but New Orleans kept him around so maybe he’s less of a Mal content than it seems on the

Outside b b is not proven in the NFL Davis Allen is more proven in the NFL than Brock bars is right now but I do obviously believe that he will land on the good side of things he’s not an alpha anymore that’s true he his best situation would be

Going being like a Julio Jones kind of role but I think he’d be better at it so but you know he’s got to accept that which is sometimes the tough part for some of these guys feels like a raven signing oh that would be that would really muck things

Up but it does kind of feel like a ra the Ravens really are like that guy in your fantasy league who wants all the guys that were good in fantasy football five years ago that’s definitely the Vibes of the Ravens which is why it’s to me the Ravens and Derrick Henry a match

Made Evan just just pure just kiss just kiss each other that’s where we go here kind of impact would Janu have on waddle if he signs they talking uh he would definitely take some theoretical targets away from I mean from like fucking Schultz who did not earn

Anything at all the entire year um so I don’t think it impacts anything really it’s still going to be a Tyreek offense a little bit of Wadd and tiend being a low priority but you probably see a few more touchdowns go jnu’s way because he can break anything for 70

Yards and he’s he broke screens last year for the Falcons uh so I I think that that would be the biggest thing is that you just see a few less possessions going but the overall volume doesn’t change too much only for the horing love stochastic up so yeah stochastic Sims great tool

For the stuff uh you could use the Marquee settings on the NBA Sims tool that’s what I would that’s actually what I’m going to go back to tonight after trying going down a notch to get try to get lower Stakes entries in which what Greg Arenberg recommended on one of his

Pieces of content I was like I’ll give it a shot I think my results are better with Marquee but I do enjoy their tools a lot for NBA um again the 150 maxing $4 entry fees on DK a lot of fun if you are somebody like me who’s a little bit of a

Laps NBA DFS player has not got enough time for me because of a child moving to the east coast so check it out for yourself if you want I really would recommend it uh where am I pointing there there we go one more pick 2773 I mean all this Michael Thomas talk

He’d be a natural fit here no nothing that exciting here I’m okay with Taj Washington though again all the guys the combine running have an explosive day is not going to help him out oh let’s get Dylan l i hard to resist Dylan L it’s this is a pure

Luxury pick and nothing screams luxury like L I think we can all agree all right final team here see all my drafted only drafting big boards on stream it’s how we keep ourselves sane for a year of drafting Brock pie and Jaden Daniels are my QBs Austin Eckler chuba hubard Roshan

Johnson kendre Miller Zack Moss audri ese Kenneth gainwell and Dylan L AKA Dylan Lube uh my running back room there wide receiver an extreme Zer RB room where I think we nailed it CD lamb Devonte Adams dvo Samuel Jaden Reed Calvin Ridley jsn and at Perry so good

Mix of floor here and one upside guy who I think should come up a lot frankly in the course of the offseason Brock Bowers Davis Allen Ben cinate a little bit more unproven at tight end but Allen had a great run down the home stretch for the

Rams and there is no Tyler higgy to start next year if not most of next year and Brock Bowers I I have a lot of faith in as well so that’s GNA be our guys got a Dylan Lube in the end to squeeze it to the finals for the big finale there we
